Immunomodulatory Effects of the Tityus serrulatus Venom on Murine Macrophage Functions in Vitro

Mediators of Inflammation, Volume 2005, Issue 1, Page 39-49, 2005., 2005
Tityus serrulatus scorpion venom (TSV) consists of a very complex mixture of molecules and demonstrates significant immunomodulatory activities capable of stimulating immune functions in vivo. The purpose of this study was to compare the crude TSV with fractionated toxins extracted from this venom in order to determine which toxin(s) presented ...

Genotoxicity evaluation induced by Tityus serrulatus scorpion venom in mice

Toxicon, 2017
Tityus serrulatus is the scorpion associated with the most severe cases of scorpion envenoming in Brazil. However, there are no studies reporting the genotoxic effects of this venom in natural or experimental envenomations. It is well known that DNA-damage responses are providing opportunities for improving disease detection and management.

Cardiorespiratory evaluation of juvenile rats experimentally envenomed with Tityus serrulatus venom [PDF]

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2010
Accidental envenomation caused by Tityus serrulatus scorpions is very common in Brazil and may result in serious cardiorespiratory alterations that are frequently fatal to children. In the present study, the effects of T. serrulatus venom on the cardiorespiratory system of recently weaned male Wistar rats were evaluated.
